I think you should really start learning how to work on your games. Have you watched john's videos on capping a monitor?

I have not. I've watched a lot of his videos on restoring machines and all but nothing on monitors. I can fix about anything except a monitor as of right now. I totally agree tho I should learn how to do that

as far as capping a monitor goes it is just a matter of desoldering a cap and resoldering in a new one. Pretty simple, just a pain. As far as fixing monitors, its a completely different matter. Always try capping first. it won't hurt anything and often fixes a lot of small problems.

Ok I'll definitely do that. As for your DK jr what is the problem with the board? If you were willing to let it go as is I may be able to work on the board or ever get a new one if it is needed.

Its pretty fucked overall. It boots but when you try to play the game its easy as . The alligators dont move. You can get to level 2 but you cant move the keys so you just die at the end of the time. Sound is pretty messed up overall with random volumes and incorrect pitches. I think I can fix the audio but I am pretty unsure what to do with the game issues. I am willing to get rid of the game. I can take some pictures. There is no sideart and the cabinet is in fairly rough condition. Outside looks okay but Inside is another mess all together.

I'm definitely up to the challenge to restore it if the price is right. I could give you my number if you would like to send a few pics
